• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Loss.

I used to watch this little girl.
I watched her for 6 yrs. because the mother was more interested in herself
and who she would sleep with that nite.
After 6 yrs. of watching and taking care of her, I fell in love with her as if she was my own.
Just recently I said something to the mother about her lack of concern for her child.
Now to spite me, she's taken her away, not letting me see her.
My heart is breaking in two because i care for her so much, but now can't see her.
I've prayed and prayed and have tried to keep busy, but i can't get her out of my mind, nor do i want to.
I don't even know why I'm writing this.
Maybe because i hurt and just want to tell someone That I miss her.

Dear Amin,

I'm so sorry. I know how much grown-ups meant to me that touched my life as my family couldn't. I pray that she would have a change of heart and let you in the little girls life again. You've surely give this girl a different perspective on life and a hope by your being her friend and she'll always have that. I'll be praying for you Amin.

God bless,
Tapero

Thank you very much. I appreciate your prayers. This is my first Christmas without her.
I guess I'm feeling a little empty inside.
Chuck.

I hope and pray that the Lord would cause His will to be done in that little girl's life.
Perhaps her mother will relent after a while, and allow you to watch her again.
Perhaps she is afraid of being judged, or being reported, or who knows what.
I'm sorry for your hurt. If you have been a significant caretaker in the little girl's life, then she is hurting, too.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
